Thanks for the links Bruce, I too couldn't find any frequency info after Trevor's initial posting!
Sadly I see that with the exception of Delfi, everything else is digital. Surely it is imperative that we get more easy sats up there for the newbies to cut their teeth on and then progress! With the loss of FO-29 to virtually everyone out of the JA footprint, its becoming a specialised hobby - there is a need to get back to basics here I would have thought!

Happily, we hams have the summarizing website of Ralf Wallio, W0RPK, http://showcase.netins.net/web/wallio/CubeSat.htm
Frequency information is also available from IARU: http://www.amsat.org.uk/iaru/

I wish some of these sat launchers would put as much effort into their webpages as their satellites.
Most don't list frequencies and seem to me to be a completer afterthought.
I get frustrated searching page after page of just rubbish to turn up nothing.
Enlighten me
